There are 22 buildings incorporated into the Library District. The First National Bank was purchased for the library system. Don't miss it. The vault in the basement has been turned into a small theater. The doors of the vault are covered with plexiglass so all of the working parts are visible. The ceilings are beautiful. The fifth floor of the building has an outdoor garden with a large chess set. Here you get a great view of surrounding buildings.
